impromptu shoot

In selfies
do you cover your face,
with one hand placed
between head turned away
and the greedy lens
and share anyway?
Because
I have seen your true face,
and I think
that could be a good look
for you

At least
'til the camera breaks,
for however a count
of bad luck years,
and you buy a new one
a new phone with gun -
Killer app in the gears
and a 1-click download
of one very real round

When we meet, by surprise
you will lift up the phone

and turn it around
